>so I'm not quite sure how this is true.

We're using more and more energy every year.

Fossil fuel usage in the developed world has stopped scaling up, but it isn't decrasing. in fact, it's still increasing a bit: just not nearly as fast as total energy consumption.

At some point, we'll need to just ban fossil fuel extraction. Gotta hit it at the point of supply.
